Horsepower increased from 94 to 115, enough to shave 1.5 seconds from the Malibu's 0-60-mph time -- which was still rather leisurely at around 17 seconds. The base 229-cubic-inch V-6 made 110 horsepower (down from 115), as did the California-only 231-cubic-inch Buick V-6. Gasoline-engine choices were unchanged, except Chevy's 229-cubic-inch (3.8-liter) V-6 was now standard in California-bound carsl, replacing Buick's 231-cubic-inch V-6 in the Golden State. That left just Classic sedans and wagons with either V-6 or V-8 power. Once again, two-door coupes, four-door sedans, and five-door wagons were offered in base and Classic trim levels. As before, the bulk of sales consisted of sedans, with ritzier Classic versions being somewhat more popular than the base models. The 1982 Chevrolet Malibu became little more than a blip on Chevy's production charts during 1982, with the new front-drive Celebrity undoubtedly stealing some of its sales. It was almost surprising that this generation of the Malibu hung around as long as it did, what with the more-modern Chevrolet Celebrity debuting in 1982. But the Celebrity was not an instant hit, possibly because many folks still liked the simplicity and proven engineering of rear-drive cars -- not to mention the solid reputation the Malibu had gained.
The 85-horsepower 4.3-liter (262-cubic-inch) V-6 diesel was also available in the Celebrity. The base V-6 for the 1980 Chevrolet Malibu displaced 229 cubic inches, up from 200 the year before. Standard engine for the 1983 Chevrolet Malibu was again Chevy's 3.8-liter V-6 with 110 horsepower, though California cars, once again, got a Buick V-6 with similar specs. Nevertheless, the 1982 Chevrolet Malibu sported a new Chevrolet Caprice-like frontal appearance, with a crosshatch grille flanked by quad rectangular headlights. Model choices for the 1982 Chevrolet Malibu were trimmed from fourteen to four, which didn't help either. The 1979 Chevrolet Malibu offered Malibu and Malibu Classic models in coupe, sedan, and station wagon form. The "hot rod" 350 with 170 horsepower offered in 1979 was dropped. A 350-cubic-inch (5.7-liter) V-8, developing 170 horsepower was avaialbe only in 1979 Chevrolet Malibu wagaons and cost $465 extra. Optional again for the 1980 Chevrolet Malibu were a 267-cubic-inch V-8 with 125 horsepower and a 305 V-8, now with 155 horsepower (down five). The 1980 Chevrolet Malibu started out the decade of the 1980s with few changes, though engine choices were shuffled a little. Chevy also dropped a few standard features, including wheel covers and some exterior moldings.
Malibu Classics got additional bright window trim and vinyl-clad body moldings. Station wagons and coupes were likewise more popular in dressier trim. With the 4.4-liter V-8 gone, the 150-horsepower 5.0-liter V-8 became optional on wagons and sedans; it was previously offered only on wagons. Sedans and wagons had fixed rear-door windows with swing-out vents for draft-free ventilation. The 1981 Chevrolet Malibu received what amounted to a "radical" styling update for a car that had changed little since its 1978 introduction: Sedans adopted a rear roofline more formal than that of their Buick and Olds siblings. Sedans were most popular, and Classics outsold base models. The base Malibus and all the coupes were dropped. Just the inflatable base has to be inflated, and it is simple to do so using your tongue. Did you know that the hammer may be the oldest tool humans are credited with creating and using? Over the past few decades, researchers have begun exploring using TH in treating specific types of stroke, heart attack, respiratory problems and injuries to the brain and spinal cord.
Over the past 70 years, medical research has revealed how refrigeration and resuscitation can go hand in hand, how otherwise life-threatening cold can be used to save lives and to delay this cycle of destruction. Uses and research continue to expand, but at its heart, TH provides a vital means of preserving the brain amid two of the harshest shocks it can suffer: the sudden loss of blood flow and its equally abrupt return. Intervention involves curtailing the damage of a recent incident, one that deprived the brain of blood flow and oxygen. The seat can become partially closed with residue, and the restricted water flow can cause whistling or chattering. At the end of the shift, or the end of the day, pour water on your griddle and heat it to 150ºF or 175ºF and wipe down the area with a thick clean cloth. If the condenser heat is never needed, it should be exhausted directly outside if possible. Repair of appliances where possible is the eco-friendly choice.
